Final exam

I had expectations I could get skill of writing when I entered Writing III-IV. I expected to write English sentences during the class.

I suggest that writing carefully essays, blogs, book reviews and so on in Writing III. At first, it is a little difficult to write these. But it getting easier and easier by keeping write to many English sentences. So it is important to write carefully each sentences.

I suggest that practicing to write English to make understand readers. In Writing III, I could get skill of writing than ever so next, in Writing IV, I practiced to write English that it is easy to read for readers. I think what is important to write English from Japanese is to make understand readers what I feel, think and want to tell them. 

I think there are many opportunities that students can get skill of writing in Writing III-IV. In Writing III-IV, I could write essays, book reviews, and blogs so there were many opportunities to write English. And also, I could get skill of typing. During the class and doing homework in library, I used a computer so I could practice typing. 

Writing IV

In Writing IV class, I wrote 15000 words on blog posts, book reviews, movie reviews and essays. It is little difficult to write what I feel when I read books and watch movies. But it is interesting to tell readers what I want to say about that. Telling what I feel and why I think so that is very important, I think. It is harder to write in English than in Japanese but I could practice writing English. (77 words)

Writing III

Last semester, I took Writing III. I wrote 10000 words on blogs. In those blogs, there are book reviews, typing homework, and essays. It is difficult for me to do homework by using computer but I asked how to do that to Mr.B. and friends so I could did my best. And typing homework, I couldn't type words in limit time, first. But I could skill of writing than ever. (71 words)
